Bhubaneswar: Brand new domestic carrier Air Vistara will conduct a trial run on Tuesday from here to Delhi. The airline will start operations from the city on October 1.
Nearly a year after GoAir started operations here with four flights for Delhi and Kolkata, Air Vistara will add to the city aviation potential of Biju Patnaik International Airport.
"This is yet another boost for domestic operations. With Air Vistara starting operations, the city airport will have four airlines running daily flights. A month ago, Air Vistara began online booking of seats and the response has been good," said airport director Sharad Kumar.
Airport sources said that after Vistara starts operations, there will be eight daily flights to the national capital.
Vistara's aircraft has 138 seats - 16 for business class, 36 for premium economy and 96 for economy. Like GoAir, Vistara is also offering considerably cheap air fares to passengers.
